I have multilink ppp running on my 4.0-RELEASE box here at home due to the 
same situation of no ISDN, cable or DSL where I live.  It works like a 
charm.  As of right now my connection with both modems have been up since 
June 16th without redialing.

I suggest reading the man page for ppp to get this setup, as each person's 
configs are unique.  If you are still having problems I'll send you a copy 
of my ppp.conf file.
